Qualifications I've lived in Springdale since 2013 with my wife Amber and our two sons, Parker and Bryson, who attend Airport High School and Fulmer Middle School. We also have a 4 year old yellow lab named Ryder and if you live in Springdale, you've most likely seen me out walking him - Yes, I'm "the guy with the backpack who walks his dog every day"! We are members of Mt Hebron United Methodist Church where I also serve on the Board of Trustees.
I have no desire or aspirations to be a politician, I'm just someone who loves this town and I want to do what I can to help it grow responsibly and thrive in the future. This is not a situation where I'm running against any other candidates, I think they've all done a fine job on our council and I'd be honored to serve alongside any of them. I just believe that any kind of board, commission, council, etc... benefits from new voices from time to time, and I'd just like to offer my voice to represent the residents of Springdale and the direction that they'd like to see the Town move in the future.
My vision for Springdale is to be a town where community comes first. A town that provides places and activities for residents to come together, get to know each other, and become friends rather than just neighbors. This town has so much to offer and I just want to do my part to help us realize all the possibilities as we move forward, and ensure that any future development is done responsibly and with the residents in mind. If you live in Springdale and would like to share your thoughts or ideas on how we can move forward together, please let me know!
